Biological Activity
Pinoresinol , among plant lignans, has the strongest antiinflammatory properties by acting on the NF-κB signaling pathway in human intestinal Caco-2 cells.[1]
Pinoresinol-Rich Olives has chemopreventive, anticancer and anti-Inflammatory effects.[2]
Pinoresinol, a lignan of wide distribution in plants, is found to occur as a minor component in the defensive secretion produced by glandular hairs of caterpillars of the cabbage butterfly, Pieris rapae, serves for defense in a caterpillar.[3]
Pinoresinol can ameliorate CCl4-induced acute liver injury, and this protection is likely due to anti-oxidative activity and down-regulation of inflammatory mediators through inhibition of NF-kappaB and activating protein 1 (AP-1).[4]
(+)-Pinoresinol possesses fungicidal activities and therapeutic potential as an antifungal agent for the treatment of fungal infectious diseases in humans.[5]
